Viewing Notes
One of rare bad PQ films seen on MUBI probably bc there’s no good quality version available. Not a huge deal but very noticeable after viewing the OG Emmanuelle movie, which looked nice.
This is a sorta retelling of the story with a 16yo becoming the the author of the sex book and falling for her publisher. This causes a few problems bc she’s 16 and immature. The moral here is to not get involved with a minor bc she can’t deal with adult issues and will accuse you of rape when things don’t go her way.
